Why Logo Design Contests are Bad for Business

By brianm | July 20, 2016

If you own a business, you need a logo, don’t kid yourself.

Some people choose to leave the job of creating that logo to a professional. Others, well, let’s just say there are people who will go to great lengths to save a buck. Any artist who knows the value of their work won’t compete in such a thing as logo design contests. Because of this, you’ll lose out on a certain type of business. To be honest, this is business you are far better off without. There are 2 sides to these logo design contests. Because serious professionals aren’t submitting logos, business owners need to realize just what they are getting. If you are in the market for a new logo you must consider your options and remember, you get what you pay for. Check out this article HERE from Inkbot Design and consider your options.
